  • Coming To The Feast Series

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Nov 5, 2022
     | 3,104 views

    This message is intended to explain the great offense shown in ignoring both the invitation to the Feast and the refusal to wear the proper wedding Garment, which is a reflection of Christ's Righteousness.

    The parable which began Matthew 22, our Gospel lesson this morning, is a parable that can really bug people. It’s shocking and disturbing and I have found over the years that people complain about it because of how harsh it is. It also serves as a good way for us to better understand how to ...read more

    The question of whether it is proper for a woman to preach or exercise leadership in the church has received much attention in recent years. Church traditions aside, what does the Bible say?

    NOTE: New Light Faith Ministries and Barry Johnson Ministries, founded by Rodney V. Johnson and Barry O. Johnson, respectively, are partnering to offer Bible studies for Christians who are seeking to grow in their relationship with Jesus. This is a Bible study lesson, not a sermon. The Bible ...read more

    Contributed by David Owens on Jul 7, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 770 views

    One of the ways that we know we will be saved is the fact that we are clothed with Christ. Entrance into the great heavenly wedding feast requires the proper clothing...the righteousness of Christ.

    A. I like to play golf, but I make no claims of being a good golfer. 1. I get to play 3 or 4 rounds of golf a year. 2. One of the best parts about golfing is being out in such a well-manicured green space. 3. If you play early in the morning when the dew is still on the ground, then you get to ...read more

     | 1,409 views

    Whether you believe yourself to be a good decision maker or have trouble picking out clothes in the morning. Know that God wants to help do the proper things in life.

    The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that will be revealed: Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but ...read more

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 15, 2024
     | 2,506 views

    In this second sermon in the series about God's wisdom, we start with the foundation of wisdom that Solomon points to. Wisdom begins with a proper respect and reverence for God.

    A. Robert Ingersoll, who lived from 1833 to 1899, was nicknamed “The Great Agnostic.” 1. On one occasion, Ingersoll, after delivering one of his addresses in defense of agnosticism, pulled out his watch and said, “According to the Bible, God has struck men to death for blasphemy. I will blaspheme ...read more

    The contrast between Mount Sinai and Mount Zion: its inferences and implications in our life.

    A KINGDOM THAT CANNOT BE SHAKEN. Hebrews 12:18-29. I. A BOOK OF CONTRASTS. The letter to the Hebrews is full of contrasts - too many to innumerate in a short space.

    based on 6 ratings
     | 10,561 views

    Prioritising commitments, bearing the Cross, and counting the cost of discipleship.

    PUTTING JESUS FIRST. Luke 14:25-33. I. Prioritising commitments. Jesus, it has to be admitted, is a great orator. Seeing the crowds following Him, He turned (Luke 14:25), and spoke words that were designed to shock, and even offend His hearers. In a masterstroke of hyperbole, He took their ...read more

  • The Ten Commandments

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 12, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,851 views

    In the LORD's schoolroom, the pass-mark is 100% - so contemplating the Law of God, summarily comprehended in the Ten Commandments, should drive us to Christ as our only hope!

    THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. Exodus 20:1-17. The first thing that we notice about the Ten Commandments is that they are the words of God (Exodus 20:1). Secondly we notice that the LORD is the God who has redeemed us (Exodus 20:2). It is not the keeping of the Ten Commandments which saves us: salvation ...read more

  • Pursuing The Mark

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 20, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,369 views

    Paul the persecutor was turned into Paul the pursuer. The Christian life is not static, but vigorously active.

    PURSUING THE MARK. Philippians 3:4-14. The starter’s line for this passage is the Apostle Paul’s polemic against false teachers, whose confidence lies in the flesh (Philippians 3:2-4). “The flesh” here represents self-help religion, which stands contrary to the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,985 views

    Made righteous through the righteousness of Jesus, which we receive by faith in Him. Whoever believes in Jesus shall not be ashamed. Whoever calls upon His name will be saved. Sincere faith leads to public confession of Christ.

    CONFESS AND BELIEVE. Romans 10:9. According to a Roman historian, the Emperor Claudius ordered all the Jews to leave Rome after public disorders caused by the preaching of the claims of Jesus Christ in the synagogues. This fact is echoed in the Scriptures, where we find the Jewish Christian ...read more

  • Bridling The Tongue

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 31, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,946 views

    The same tongue which responds to God’s manifest glories by blessing His holy name also denigrates the poor - the widow, the orphan, and the resident alien - who, like us, are made in His image.

    BRIDLING THE TONGUE. James 3:1-12. “If anyone thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this man’s religion is vain” (James 1:26). James 3:1. James begins his elucidation of this text with a warning against seeking pre-eminence amongst the brethren. This ...read more

  • The Garden

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,750 views

    Man in the image of God, man in the Garden.

    THE GARDEN. Genesis 2:4-25. In Genesis 1 we saw Creation from the cosmological viewpoint of God. The expression “These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth” in Genesis 2:4 links the seeming remoteness of God in the earlier account with the intimacy of the Garden, viewing Creation ...read more
